Lucas scoops two category wins at the Construction News Specialist Awards 2020

Fantastic news for the Lucas team with not one, but two, category award wins at the Construction News Specialist Awards 2020 held virtually yesterday.

We won the Digital Construction Excellence category for our development and innovative use of apps in the day-to-day running of our operations, both at Lucas HQ and out on construction sites across London and the South East.

The judges said: “Lucas stood out with its passion and boldness for digital innovation, setting an example for bigger companies of what can be achieved with imagination, focus and skill.”

We also won the Health, Safety and Wellbeing Excellence category for the effectiveness of our apps and our inclusive approach to this hugely important aspect of our operations, ensuring that all our operatives remain safe and well working for Lucas.

This time the judges commented: “Lucas showed innovative use of IT to analyse trends and improve engagement. It deliberately tries to think differently using technology to eliminate harm in different ways.”

We were also shortlisted in the Finishing and Fit Out Specialist of the Year category for the second year running, having won what was then a brand new category last year.

Danny Lucas said: “I’m delighted for the whole team that our efforts and determination to introduce new technologies to our area of construction have been recognised by our peers in the industry. The positive results of what can be achieved by adopting innovative ways of managing our operations can be clearly seen in the quality of our work and the services we deliver safely every day.”
